What the thread found

• Loon Video produces the M-One analog motor that works with BarTech follow focus systems
• Heden manufactures the M26T analog motor, but it is designed for zoom control on lenses like Optimo zooms rather than focus motors and does not function with BarTech
• Loon Video has a reputation for being slow to respond regarding maintenance and support services
• Direct inquiry with the BarTech manufacturer may be the most reliable way to identify compatible analog motor options

Depends on

• Discussion is from 2015 and manufacturer offerings may have changed since then
• The availability of analog motors from other manufacturers besides Loon Video remains unclear
